Rufferto Posted October 21, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Hi all, I'll be on the Equinox in just a few weeks, armed with a Premium drinks package! I like rum, so I'm looking to you for your favorite rum based cocktails. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron_L Posted October 21, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 21, 2016 When we were on the Summit a couple of years ago I had a drink called a Captain Ron Punch (it had Captain Morgan and Ron Zappata rum, I believe). It was very good, but don't drink it too fast :D I hope it is still available when we are on the Eclipse in January! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Captain Funtime Posted October 21, 2016 #3 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Rum Runner on the rocks (not frozen) with a 151 floater. Great pool drink. Google the original recipe (from Florida) and take it with you. Some bartenders don't know how to make them. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwcruisers Posted October 21, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 21, 2016 My favorite is the Bermuda classic "Dark & Stormy" -- but, only if it's made with Gosling's Black Seal rum! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted October 21, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I second the suggestion for the rum runner - yummy! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luv2camp04 Posted October 22, 2016 #10 Share Posted October 22, 2016 If you like rum, go to the martini bar and ask for a snifter of Mount Gay XO rum. Lots of people don't realize how good really good rum is straight. It is so smooth and flavorful. Give it a try. And if you are ever in San Juan, do the Bacardi Tour, but do the rum tasting tour. Very informative and you will tast some amazing rums that aren't your regular white Bacardi. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rou-Dyliq Posted October 22, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 22, 2016 A traditional Mojito will always top my list - can't beat alcoholic limeade. But two very close runner-ups are Painkillers and Dirty Monkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobndee Posted October 22, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 22, 2016 A traditional daiquiri - rum, lime juice, sugar syrup. And I'll second the suggestion of a snifter of good aged rum. It's better than cognac! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akowilm Posted October 22, 2016 #16 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I think I remember the World Bar really showcasing several high end rums. They have a neat menu, check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufferto Posted October 23, 2016 Author #19 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Wow! These all sound amazing! I'm going to write these suggestions down on a slip of paper and give them a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QE2_Fan Posted October 23, 2016 #20 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Last cruise I discovered a cocktail with Spiced Rum in it...I thought it was a rum runner or Dark n Stormy but not sure. It was from the Ensemble Lounge menu so hopefully will still be there next week aboard Solstice! But liking the sound of some of the above, including trying out the World Class Bar!

Jirage Posted October 23, 2016 #21 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I second the BahamaMama - excellent drink, however if you just ask any bartender for a cocktail containing rum you will be pleasantly surprised by their knowledge and selections that aren't actually listed anywhere; I had a great time sampling many different cocktails that I'd never even heard if Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ReneeFLL Posted October 23, 2016 #22 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Bahama Mama, Rum Runner and a Pina Colorado with spiced rum. Also, a Mai Tai is great if made correctly. If you're ever in Miami in April and like rum you should go to this event. Next year will be the first time we will miss it due to a cruise. http://www.rumrenaissance.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
